Why Is This Idea Important?: It is more fair

Here are some ideas on taxes.

Have a resource tax, God put resources on earth for everyone not just the rich, people should keep the wealth from there labor mind and body, but not from the resources they own, that wealth can be used to run the government and any wealth left over return to the people, and only let them keep some of it if they give good jobs to Americans and make the environment cleaner. You can give tax credits for each American they hire at a minimum yearly salary with health care benefits also give tax credits for improving the environment and tax them more if they degrade the environment. A resource tax and the income tax I think are the only moral taxes I would get rid of all other taxes. A resource tax is like the property tax but it will not tax you on your labor and can be applied to more things. Labor would only be tax by the income tax. I would give all Americans a basic income allowance that is not taxed then set a poverty level any income below that also not taxed then a flat tax on any income above it and then a surtax on incomes over $250,000.00 base on unemployment, the higher the unemployment the higher the surtax, after all it is the rich that hires and fires people, and if they hire enough Americans at a good yearly income and keep the environment clean I would not care if they paid no taxes, but if they send all the jobs out of the country and ruin the environment I say tax them at 100%.

  1. "people should keep the wealth from there labor mind and body, but not from the resources they own"

    To begin with, this negates property rights by not allowing individuals to retain wealth from the resources they own.

    Next, the main property that individuals own are derived from their labor and minds. Body is redundant to labor.

    Capital is NOT money, Money is only an imperfict reflection of capital. Capital is created by the imput of individuals ability to change raw material into something more useful to others, ie land cleared for planting, building homes, planted seeds taken care of until harvest, harvesting and bringing harvested food to market. All of these actions require the indiviual's input(labor cost) to change seed into food that will keep the indivicual and others alive.

    I am talking about the resource value we did not work for. The blue sky, the clean air and water. I know we have to keep them clean by not polluting them. There are people live in clean areas that pollute other areas, they should be tax for the clean area, even more if he ruin the other areas for the rest of the people.

    If you make the earth worst more taxes, if you make the earth better less taxes, that simple.

    Do you want any government? If you get bad people run anything it will not work. Try to get good people run things and have checks on there power. It is not perfect but it is better no government.
